Re: Adult coach?

On Torbotics we have used a student coach for the past two years. Our mentors feel at the competition they should do as little as possible, but they are certainly not slacking off, to let the students learn as much as they can about FIRST and its goals and experience them. I personally like the student coach because
1. I feel I can communicate better with a peer, and he can better communicate with me.
2. It allows another position for a student that has worked hard on our robot to get to enjoy the pleasures.

Also for the past two years the coach has been an Andrew but that is just because the A's are awesome at our high school
